Picked up my orphan, "lil blue" today - LOVE IT!

Picked up my orphan, "lil blue" today but am still waiting for my red one to come in. Heading for the hardware store now to get a seat belt clip so the seat belt stops digging into my collarbone, and a windshield sunshield.
The forum is a great help and I'm sure I'll have more questions later. Can't wait to NOT visit the gas pumps so often!!!!

Just gas it up more often so you "nickel and dime" it to always keep your tank full AND mess with the soccer moms with their behemoth SUV's.

CONGRATS! Go figure - I have a red orphan.but have a yellow on order.

Congratulations on your orphan! My windows were tinted today, so my car will stay cooler in the hot Texas sun! The more you drive your smart, the more you will love it.http://smartcarofamerica.com/forums/...lies/smile.gif

Actually you'll be visiting the gas station just as often because you will be driving a lot more. It is so fun to drive you won't be able to help yourself!

Congrats on the new car. I find I go to the gas station just as often as I used to. The only difference is it costs me $35 instead of $75
